1 INCLUSION AND DIVERSITY AT HARRIS BEACH SM Singular thinking yields conventional and predictable results. Critical thinking sparked by a meeting of diverse minds and opinions can yield breakthrough client solutions. - Munesh Patel, Partner and Council on Inclusion and Diversity Chair
2 OUR COMMITMENT TO INCLUSION AND DIVERSITY Harris Beach strives to cultivate an inclusive workplace respecting the contributions of diverse individuals which empowers everyone and fosters innovative approaches that enhance the services we provide. Our mission is to excel as a leading multicultural law firm that reflects and builds upon the growing diversity of the communities and clients we serve. Our inclusive culture and strong commitment to diversity allows us to uncover and optimize the talent necessary to fulfill our mission of providing client solutions that exceed expectations. - Jim Spitz, CEO of Harris Beach pllc 2
3 Understanding Inclusion and Diversity To truly comprehend the separate concepts and practices of inclusion and diversity, it is important to understand how they interrelate. Inclusion is a mechanism to create a culture in which all individuals are treated respectfully and fairly, have equal access to resources and opportunities, and are valued for their contributions to an organization s success. Diversity, narrowly defined, is a measure of the extent to which an organization employs people of diverse backgrounds, experiences, visions and views. Our broader perspective of diversity goes beyond such visible aspects as race, ethnicity, gender, age and sexual orientation (compositional diversity) to encompass the diversity of thought and perspective each individual brings to the workplace (cognitive diversity). Embracing diversity and promoting inclusion in all its forms allows us to attract and retain top talent, better understand our clients, collaborate and perform at our highest levels, and deliver the innovative solutions and value necessary to succeed in a complex interconnected world. Welcoming and Building on Inclusion and Diversity Building on a tradition of inclusion, acceptance and mutual respect, Harris Beach launched a major diversity initiative in The following year, the firm hired the nationally recognized diversity training and consulting firm Roosevelt Thomas and Associates which conducted interviews, focus groups and diversity training, and assisted Harris Beach in the formation of our first Diversity Council. As our program has progressed, we have engaged The FutureWork Institute, a network of consultants whose clients include international law firms and leading global organizations. The FutureWork Institute supports our view of inclusion and diversity as a deeply rooted change process which drives respect, collaboration and innovation. Today, the Harris Beach Council on Inclusion and Diversity is comprised of attorneys and staff from various departments and offices, and from a broad range of ethnic and academic backgrounds, experiences, cultures and lifestyles. The Council on Inclusion and Diversity is dedicated to the retention and advancement of all individuals. 3
4 Practices and Programs Harris Beach has a legacy of making positive contributions in the communities we serve. The following practices and programs foster inclusion, diversity and community collaboration. Accessibility Harris Beach is committed to making all of its offices and facilities accessible to individuals with disabilities by meeting or exceeding the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act. We proactively consult with employees who have disabilities to determine whether structural and technological modifications are needed to improve their workplace environment. Law School Prep Program We support the Ronald H. Brown Law School Prep Program of St. John s University School of Law. It is dedicated to helping college students who are part of ethnic, racial and socioeconomic groups typically underrepresented in large law firms learn about the legal profession and get into law school. Legal Diversity Clerkship Program Harris Beach is a founding member of the Monroe County Bar Association s Legal Diversity Clerkship Program which provides paid summer work experience to law students of historically underrepresented groups within the legal profession. The firm has hired a number of program participants and actively supports the program s long-term goal of increasing inclusiveness and diversity in the legal profession in upstate New York. Staff Recruiting Harris Beach has programs with community colleges and undergraduate colleges to identify students who upon graduation would be candidates for employment in support staff positions at the firm. The programs consist of in-class lectures on preparing for employment provided by Harris Beach. In turn, the colleges provide recommendations for potential job candidates based upon students overall academic and extracurricular achievements. 4
5 Work-Life Balance Harris Beach supports work-life balance in many ways including flexible work schedules, remote work connectivity and the ability for attorneys with part-time schedules to remain on the partnership track. Other firm benefits that promote a healthy work-life balance include maternity and paternity leave, retirement savings and financial planning support, fitness benefits, summer early out program and healthy living programs such as fitness and smoking cessation support and a firm-wide wellness initiative. Diversity of Practice Harris Beach and our subsidiaries provide a full range of legal and professional services for clients across New York state, as well as nationally and internationally. The Harris Beach family includes more than 40 practice groups and industry teams and three nonlegal consulting subsidiaries, all of which work in a highly collaborative manner that effectively leverages specialized knowledge, experience and team synergies to serve the full range of our clients needs. Diversity Compliance Our attorneys help organizations maintain compliance with New York state procurement regulations related to diversity by partnering with Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprises (MWBEs) when proposing or conducting business within the state. Harris Beach also assists clients with obtaining MWBE certification and, whenever appropriate, uses MWBE partners in the delivery of our legal services. Continuing Inclusion and Diversity Education Harris Beach education and awareness programs include: Inclusion and diversity orientation for all new attorneys and staff Generational diversity seminars to foster constructive dialogue and effective communication and teamwork with all individuals across the generational continuum Managing Conflict Toward Positive Growth seminars to minimize team conflict and facilitate productive teamwork Understanding micro inequities and unconscious bias Training to raise awareness about working with attorneys and staff with disabilities DiSC training to improve productivity, teamwork and communication among attorneys and staff with diverse personalities and behavioral styles The firm s acceptance and understanding of our different backgrounds, lifestyles and viewpoints effectuates and creates a dynamic environment where we learn from others and capture the advantages of our diversity for our clients benefit. - Alex Neubert, paralegal 5
6 CORE VALUES Integrity Honesty, sincerity, openness and fairness are the building blocks of integrity. By embracing these values and holding ourselves to the highest levels of personal and professional behavior in all our relationships, we have earned the trust and respect to become a firm our clients rely upon as a trusted ally. Respect Our culture of understanding, compassion and respect for each other naturally carries through to our relationships with our clients. Harris Beach believes in the fundamental dignity of each individual and every employee is valued for their unique experiences and perspectives. The rich diversity of our workforce, which reflects the communities we serve, enhances our work environment and the legal solutions we provide our clients. We listen to others and are responsive when others need assistance. Teamwork We value the unique skills of each individual at Harris Beach and strategically leverage our broad knowledge base to build dedicated, interdisciplinary, problem-solving teams that are greater than the sum of their parts. Bringing our best team thinking to bear for our clients allows us to understand and anticipate their challenges, and provide breakthrough solutions. Ingenuity Applied ingenuity is the impetus of our success at Harris Beach. We value and reward creativity and innovation, and provide our professionals with an entrepreneurial yet collegial atmosphere where we take our work, but not necessarily ourselves, seriously. This environment gives rise to the free flow of ideas which we transform into forward thinking client solutions. Inclusion Harris Beach recognizes everyone has a right to be included. By respecting and embracing our differences, we create an environment that optimizes our talent and promotes fresh thinking and innovative solutions that exceed client expectations. Sharing experiences from our diverse backgrounds increases the quality of everyone s contributions, enhancing the services we provide. 6

I am proud to be part of a firm that hires and advances employees with diverse talents and life situations, including those with disabilities, not solely because it is the right thing to do, but because the firm genuinely recognizes that an inclusive workplace promotes innovative thinking, fresh ideas and varied approaches to achieve client success. - Kareen Zeitounzian, associate 7

Todd Bullard received the State University of New York at Buffalo Law School Students of Color Distinguished Alumni Award and the Rochester Black Bar Association s Trailblazer Award It is extremely valuable to have a work environment where individuals can express their ideas, thoughts and recommendations, and be respected for offering their views. Whether the suggestions are enacted upon or not is immaterial, as the free flowing environment is what generates dialog and practical solutions. This type of environment is not stress free as individuals can earnestly agree to disagree, but adhering to our core values allows us to achieve extraordinary results and also manage the stresses generated in a positive and respectful manner. - Mario Domanti, director of Human Resources Offices Throughout New York: ALBANY 677 BROADWAY, ALBANY, NY BUFFALO 726 EXCHANGE ST., BUFFALO, NY ITHACA 119 EAST SENECA ST., ITHACA, NY MELVILLE 538 BROADHOLLOW RD., MELVILLE, NY NEW YORK CITY 100 WALL ST., NEW YORK, NY ROCHESTER 99 GARNSEY RD., PITTSFORD, NY SARATOGA SPRINGS 358 BROADWAY, SARATOGA SPGS, NY SYRACUSE 333 WEST WASHINGTON ST., SYRACUSE, NY UNIONDALE 333 EARLE OVINGTON BLVD., UNIONDALE, NY WHITE PLAINS 445 HAMILTON AVE., WHITE PLNS, NY Offices Also In: NEW HAVEN, CT 195 CHURCH ST., NEW HAVEN, CT NEWARK, NJ ONE GATEWAY CTR., NEWARK, NJ 07102
